About Linda
LCSW in North Carolina with 30 years of experience. Linda Burbank helps people facing stress, anxiety, depression, relationship and parenting challenges. She also supports people dealing with addiction, grief, trauma and issues around self-esteem and life transitions.
Linda uses client-centered methods that put the person's experience first. She draws on Cognitive Behavioral Therapy to identify unhelpful thinking and practical steps to adjust it. Solution-Focused Therapy is used to set clear goals and notice what is already working in daily life.
Sessions are conversational and goal-oriented. Linda treats the person in front of her as the expert about their life and looks for strengths to build on. She works in short-term problem solving when that fits, and longer work for deeper concerns.
Her additional focus areas include adoption and foster care, autism and Asperger syndrome, blended family issues, caregiver stress, communication problems, impulsivity, and midlife concerns. Linda also addresses social anxiety, young adult issues, bipolar mood concerns, and LGBT-related matters.
People who come for help can expect a clear focus on practical change. Linda helps set small, achievable steps and tracks progress. To begin, she asks about goals and what has helped so far, then they plan the next steps together.

How Linda applies therapy approaches in online sessions
Client-Centered Therapy focuses on the person's perspective and priorities. The therapist listens for what matters most and follows the client's lead to uncover strengths and choices that fit their life. This approach often helps with relationship tensions, parenting concerns, and coping with change.Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) looks at the link between thoughts, feelings, and actions. Online sessions using CBT typically identify unhelpful thinking patterns and test small behavioral experiments to change them. This method is commonly used for anxiety, stress, depression, and impulsivity concerns.
Solution-Focused Therapy narrows attention to practical steps and existing resources. Sessions concentrate on clear goals and repeatable actions the person can try between meetings. It works well for short-term problem solving and for people who want measurable progress.
Finding the right approach is part of the work. The therapist will collaborate with the client to choose which methods to use, based on the client's goals and preferences. That choice can change over time as needs and progress become clearer.

Online sessions can make it easier to fit meetings into a busy week, allow for shorter check-ins, and reduce travel time. These practical benefits help people maintain consistency while they work on concrete steps and coping skills.
